How to use VMProtectDecryptStringA properly?

Post by Petrusky »

Hi VMPSoft admin(s),

I'm using the VMProtect SDK on my code, it's an Qt6 C++ Application, this is the code of the string I want to protect:

This is what it shows on VMProtect software:

And the program was packed successfully. Viewing the program using IDA or something would not expose the string, however, when using ProcessHacker to view the memory at runtime, the string is still in there:

Does that mean I'm misusing the function, or something else? Thanks in advance! :D

I've not, yet. I'm using the Demo version to test the features, I also sent the compiled binary to my friend and ask him to protect it for me, and it still shows the string in ProcessHacker.

This is not true, as you used the registered Professional instead of the Demo. We don't provide support to anyone who uses pirated versions of our software.

P.S. The topic is closed.
